When Lu Fanghai was fourteen years old, he enlisted as a soldier for his sick father, he grew up early, and the village also helped to hide it, but no one pursued him.It's just that that day the Fang clan was reluctant to give up his son, and dragged him to cry so much that he fainted, delaying the time of the gathering, Lu Fanghai had to go on the road alone with the two taels of silver that his father gave him.When he went out for the first time, a little child, who didn't know the truth that wealth was not revealed, let people get a thorough understanding of it on the ox cart, and when he went to the town, he touched Lu Fanghai, who only left a hole in his pocket, and felt that his future was hopeless.Not to mention that when the army checked the number of people, there was no oneself, but I was afraid that I would be recorded as a deserter or re-ordered to come to the house to bring my father to enlist in the army, even if I was hungry in the cold wind now, it was not pleasant.Half-grown children, when they were growing up, felt that they couldn't help it anymore when they were hungry, and squatted in the corner of the wall to silently wipe away tears.At this time, through the courtyard wall, I heard the sound of the woman scolding inside, and then the courtyard door opened with a "squeak", and out came a thin little girl, holding a large wooden basin with both hands, which was full of dirty clothes that the family had changed to wash, and moved to the well under the tree on the street side one by one, put the wooden basin on the side of the well, and sank the bucket to draw water.Seeing that she was struggling to carry water, Lu Fanghai, who was so hungry, couldn't think much about it, so he hurriedly walked up and reached out to help, but the little girl was startled when he suddenly came over, and she lifted half of the bucket and fell down again.The little girl frowned slightly, glanced at him slightly, Lu Fanghai blushed, relying on her big stature, stepped forward and squeezed away the little girl, her mouth moved, and she opened her mouth in the end: "I'll help you fetch water, do you have anything to eat for me" The skin was too thin, the little girl almost didn't hear clearly, looking at the pale face of the young man in front of her, and the crumbling body, she guessed a little.She lowered her head and bit her lip and thought for a moment before whispering, "Wait a minute, be careful not to fall." ”After saying that, he ran home, and after a while, he came out again.The little girl came over and took the bucket of water that Lu Fanghai had just carried, and quietly handed him the half of the cake hidden in her sleeve.Lu Fanghai quickly took the cake, ate it in three or two bites, and looked at the little girl with a blank eye, and the little girl's face, which was frozen white by the cold wind, slightly floated a touch of blood.whispered: "No, no, it's my dinner." ”Lu Fanghai was stunned for a moment, stepped forward and picked up the bucket and fetched another bucket of water, put it at the little girl's feet, glanced at the cold well water soaked in the cracked little hands, was silent for a long time, turned around and left without saying anything.In the distance, I heard the door of the courtyard behind me open again, and a woman took out some clothes for washing, and complained loudly to the neighbors that her show girl was as lazy as a stupid pig.Lu Fanghai quietly turned his head, glanced at the girl, stubbornly pursed the pale and chapped lips in the cold wind, his round eyes tried to widen, but there were still big tears falling into the wooden basin full of clothes in front of him, while the woman turned around and went home with the neighbor to get the thread, she quickly wiped the tears in her eyes with her short sleeve, turned her head, and saw that the young man was still in the distance just now, looking at herself.She lowered her head again, and slammed her clothes with a heavy mallet, if she didn't finish washing it earlier, she would go home for fear that it would be another good beating.Lu Fanghai clenched his fists and secretly made a decision: if he could come back alive in a few years, if there was still a chance to show his mother at that time, he would remember it.Although the half of the bread eaten could not fill his stomach, it gave Lu Fanghai endless warmth in the cold early winter.Lu Fanghai was lying on the kang, her heart was beating faster, seeing that she was delayed from sleeping on the kang, she was thinking about getting up and laying on the floor by herself, and heard the sound of Suo Suo in the dark night, Du Wenxiu took off her coat and lay down beside him.Both of them were very nervous, and their bodies tensed and could not relax.It's just that Du Wenxiu died again during the day, and his vitality was consumed too much, and he fell asleep not long after lying down.In the end, it is a new soul who has seen the wind and waves, and the men around him are honest, and the underwear he is wearing now is more than he wore in the previous summer, so what is there to be afraid of.Even if he is not honest, the marriage certificate of the two is established, and it is legal, it is worth turning over and over again and not being able to sleep.She didn't know that the man who was tossing and turning on the bed didn't close his eyes until the sky was bright, and he got up and went out to sharpen the woodcutter.Yesterday she said that "sharpening the knife is not a mistake for chopping wood", Lu Fanghai thought, worthy of being the daughter of the Xiucai family, her speech is really different from those ordinary village women, it is too dark at night, so she simply gets up early and sharpens the knife, so that she can cut some bamboo to make a nest for the chickens.In the morning, he sharpened his knives in the yard, but woke them all up.Fang Shi came out and saw that his son was doing things, so he hurriedly drilled into the kitchen, and came out again halfway through the drill, crossed his waist and scolded to the east chamber: "Your men are all up, and they are still lying on the kang, so that the whole village knows that there is a lazy daughter-in-law in our family, and I can't enjoy the blessings of a daughter-in-law in my life, ah?"
Do you want to eat it when you have to cook it and bring it to the kang?
Yes?
”Du Wenxiu sat on the kang and rolled her eyes, what should this Fang really say about her, the most annoying old woman in her village is three points more pleasing than her."
Get up."
While holding his hair and going out, seeing that the sky was still a little dark, Fang's stalk stalked his neck and rushed to the east wing, snorting and panting like a toad."
Tell me, ah, which daughter-in-law in this Peach Blossom Village is like you, your man and your mother-in-law have gotten up, and you are still lying on the kang, you should be raising you to eat idle meals?"
Seeing that Du Wenxiu's attitude was kind today, the Fang clan became arrogant again.Next to him, Lu Fanghai put down the knife he was sharpening in his hand and looked at his mother helplessly."
It's okay, it's okay, mother, rest next to you, I'll go make breakfast."
Du Wenxiu didn't think what she said was ugly, this was ugly, how would she live in the future, this family was hers now, she was just a newcomer, and she had just started to make trouble, and Lu Fanghai was also difficult to do.Thinking about this man's maintenance of himself everywhere yesterday, forget it, he doesn't even know which dynasty he is in now, so don't worry if he can have a stable nest to shelter from the wind and rain.Hearing her say this, Fang's jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on: "I don't need you to cook, let you cook, I won't have anything to eat at home for two days." ”Du Wenxiu was dumbfounded, why did you ask me to get up if you didn't let me cook?"
Then I'll go see how the chicks are doing."
Turning around, he walked towards yesterday's chicken coop.Qiao'er rubbed her sleepy eyes and walked out of the hall, fetching water and washing her face, ready to help Fang's family, Du Wenxiu then remembered that she hadn't washed her face and brushed her teeth yet.However, watching Fang's cooking in the kitchen, he still stared at himself from time to time, so he had to put aside the matter of washing his face and see if the chick he bought yesterday was still alive and well.
